2.COOKING DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 475 degrees F. In a blender, puree garlic, oil, oregano, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, 1 tablespoon coarse salt, and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper. Place lamb in a roasting pan; rub with garlic mixture. Roast, turning pan once, 30 minutes. Reduce temperature to 350 degrees F; roast, until a thermometer inserted in center registers 130 degrees F to 135 degrees F, 50 to 60 minutes for medium-rare.

  3. Transfer lamb to cutting board, and tent loosely with foil; let rest 20 minutes. Remove strings from lamb, and cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Serve with yogurt sauce.
